Quotes About Strength

As a farmer ploughs a field and makes the ground soft, a yogi ploughs his nerves so they can germinate and make a better life.

If the body is too stiff and the mind is too rigid, what life can it live?

You must keep your balance by using the intelligence of the body (whether instinct, feeling, or ability) but not by strength.

Als het lichaam te stijf is en de geest te rigide, wat voor leven heeft het dan?

The cord breaketh at last by the weakest pull.
